My machine recently crashed while doing a 'make buildworld' and things are really screwed up.=20 I get the following when I boot: /dev/rda0s1f: CANNOT READ: BLK 655424 /dev/rda0s1f: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; Run fsck Manually So, I go the the shell and run fsck and get.... (da0: ahc0:0:6:0): READ(06). CDB 8 10 ca 1f 70 0 ( "" ): MEDIUM ERROR info: 10ca6a csi:2,92,10 asc: 80,0 ( "" ): VENDOR SPECIFIC ASC sks:80,0 CANNOT READ: BLK 655424 **** FILE SYSTEM STILL DIRTY ****** **** RERUN FSCK ******* This happens over and over. I go to the ADAPTEC (2940) and run the verify tool. It shows a bad sector at #0010CA6AH. It asks if I want to remap that sector. I say yes. Rerunning the verify gives the same error and nothing seems to get fixed. I can mount the partition (/usr) read-only in single user mode and see my files. I attempted to mount it ro in /etc/fstab, but it won't boot to a dirty filesystem. Is there any way to get to my files? I am coming back to this machine after planning my wedding for the last few months only to find out that my backups were not running. I know this isn't a very good excuse, but that's beside the point. =20 This machine is on a network. Can you access a machine in single-user mode? Probably not. My last resort is to buy another scsi drive, install FreeBSD on it, and try and mount that partition. Then I could copy my files off of it. Or could I buy a tape drive, hook it up to it and make a quick backup? I'm not sure if I can do this in single user mode. Anyway, if anyone has any ideas let me know. And please, no lectures about backing up. I blame it all on my new wife. :-) jpc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
